You came, you saw, you conquered as a woman of your word,
so to say farewell like Judas is a thing I find absurd.
You shook my world - (you sucked me in then spat me out in bubbles),
the effects of your affections stay the cause of all my troubles.

[CHORUS:]

The only thing you never did was have the decency
to kiss this corpse and nail the lid - come on and bury me!

I placed you on the pedestral - you tossed me in the gutter,
it seems your lies were like those thighs - spread easier than b___er.
I'm first to go - so last to know how fickle is your passion,
now my bones hang in your closet though my face is out of fashion.

[CHORUS:]

As vultures circle 'round my head, far as the eye can see.
I walk this world (the living dead) - high-time to bury me!

You laid me to death - now lay me to rest,
a sticky sweet-nothing to get off your chest.
It's all pillow-talk at the end of the day,
the cat's got your tongue - with so much left to say

I'm not the knave you 've fooled - behind the mask you wore,
my beguiling, smiling virgin hides the cunning of a w____.
'Cause your ego needs an offering - 'tis i the coffin fits
so I martyred like St. Edmund with your name upon my lips.

[CHORUS:]

"Oh, do it hurt?"
Oh, does it not! - I died with each degree,
just one small detail overlooked - the need to bury me!

I'm just the shade of something you remembered to forget,
stood like Banquo by your bedside - you just haven't seen me yet.
Every notch upon the headboard - each twist in your string of lovers,
is a tear on your pillow - fate serves you as serves the others!

[CHORUS:]

You swore to always stay my friend - why even this can't be,
Kept your back turned until the end whilst I begged; "Bury me!"
